Hi,
I'm using muttprint to print mail from the MUA mutt; the mail is piped
into the configured print cmd:
set print_cmd="muttprint --printer pdf --paper A4 --rem_sig "
muttprint is a Perl script which needs among other tools:
# fgrep system /usr/local/bin/muttprint
system("latex -interaction=nonstopmode mail.tex >> $errorRedirection 2>&1");
system("latex -interaction=nonstopmode mail.tex >> $errorRedirection 2>&1");
system("dvips -t $paperformat -o $Temp{ps} $Temp{dvi} >> $errorRedirection 2>&1")
...
i.e. needs in PATH 'latex' and 'dvips'; at the end it will generate a
Postscript file and hand it over to CUPS which generates for me a PDF
file in disk, which does the above mentioned printer 'pdf' in CUPS (but
could as well print to any other printer defined in CUPS);
this is my use case;

Mee too.

Will do this tomorrow.
